It seems to be losing market share around here. Hard to find a cold Barq's of either type now.

I'm drinking Dad's Root Beer right now. It's not bad. It's not something I'd go to any effort to drink again (since I'd have to get my sister to mail me some, which is far too much effort).

Speaking of root beer, last week I was in Tulsa, Oklahoma, and I ate at a place called Weber's Superior Root Beer Restaurant. They had root beer in frozen mugs, which was good, so I bought a 2-liter to take home. But the stuff in the 2-liter was incredible. I wish I could get that stuff on a regular basis.

Here is another one of my childhood pop stories.

I went to Great America (amusement park) when I was 13 years old. A group of friends and I discovered a root beer bar that was sponsored by A & W????

They served little 1oz mugs of root bear for only a nickel. I must have hung around that place for a good hour. I could not stop myself. I recall filling up to the point of pain. All for a couple of dollars or so, one 13 year old kid drank his butt off. (LOL)
